Armitage Shanks Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Just heard that Leicester have lost out on him and we're getting him. That's from a Leicester City contact.
LGTL Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 There does seem to be far too much info coming out for all this not to be true. No smoke with this much fire I think...
Armitage Shanks Posted 11 August, 2011 Author Posted 11 August, 2011 Someone very close to LCFC. That's all I can say. No timeframe. Never posted on one of these before so I'm not a bullshi**er. Just passing on what I have heard from a very reliable source at LCFC.
Saint_clark Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Asked Fourth_official on Twitter; "Were you expecting the recent announcement by SFC to be the signing of Maynard? Or is that something to keep an eye on?" And he responded with; "Keep an eye on!".
influx Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 There does seem to be far too much info coming out for all this not to be true. No smoke with this much fire I think... You dont get this much smoke without fire
thornhill_saints Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Fourth_Official Were you expecting this recent announcement by SFC to be the signing of Maynard? Or is that something to keep an eye on? Fourth_Official Fourth Official @ @saint_clark keep an eye on!
thornhill_saints Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Fourth_Official Fourth Official Welcome to Southampton Mr Fox, now for the rest... #Saintsfc http://yfrog.com/kkulepoj
scotty Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Blimey!! That will take the edge off southamptons friday riots....
Wadge Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 QPR have just signed a defender so maybe Gorks is on way as well?
LGTL Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 You dont get this much smoke without fire I knew there was something wrong with that sentence somewhere!
LGTL Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Does anyone have any idea who this "fourth official" guy is?
This Charming Man Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Pretty strong rumour now. Let's hope it's true.
saints-cris Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Does anyone have any idea who this "fourth official" guy is? Not a clue, but whoever it is, is normally pretty reliable
This Charming Man Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Does anyone have any idea who this "fourth official" guy is? He's got a fairly decent success rate so far.
derry Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Armitage Shanks is I believe a solicitor in the midlands so could well have relative contacts in that area.
supersonic Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 from @Fourth-Official I said last week Southampton will rock the boat for Leicester, I'll develop on it a little more #nickymaynard
Pancake Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 So this "Fourth Official" chap, he is one of the posters from here yeah?
capitalsaint Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 So this "Fourth Official" chap, he is one of the posters from here yeah? no, he's an everton fan in liverpool with some very good connections it seems
Saint Garrett Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 IF Maynard did join...it would be pretty harsh to drop Connolly!
CFSFC Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 So this "Fourth Official" chap, he is one of the posters from here yeah? Apparently an Everton fan

Big_Bald_Si Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Someone very close to LCFC. That's all I can say. No timeframe. Never posted on one of these before so I'm not a bullshi**er. Just passing on what I have heard from a very reliable source at LCFC. I'll believe it when I see it. Despite our recent windfall, I just can't see us spending £4 million+ on a player
warsash saint Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 he tweeted an hour ago ' Done my bet!! Southampton 16-1 to win the Championship you'll soon see why '
CFSFC Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Doble going out on loan aswell.... Could be a sign someone is coming in.
shurlock Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Supposedly it was all over the Foxes Talk forum -somebody quoting £6m, £20-25K pw (christ knows how they know). Thread then mysteriously vanished.
Saint Matty 76 Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 NickyMaynard10 Nicky Maynard i think you all know by now on twitter, players don't comment on Speculation.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 he tweeted an hour ago ' Done my bet!! Southampton 16-1 to win the Championship you'll soon see why ' really? must be on his way............
wireframebox Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 He just said this in response to a Leicester city fan asking to say either blue or red... NickyMaynard: "@FraserMcdiarmid Red....... Bristol City play in RED."
hypochondriac Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 If we get Maynard, I will start getting excited...
Saint_clark Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 If we get Maynard, I will start getting excited... What will it take for you to actually be excited then?
SuperMikey Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Maynard would be a fantastic signing. Could see us challenging for automatic with him in the side.
ohwhenthesaints Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 What will it take for you to actually be excited then? A fans forum. Just joking Hypo! Maynard is about the best signing we can expect for a club in our position.
SuperSAINT Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Maynard would be a fantastic signing.... Probably as good a signing as we could possibly make at this level (It's going to be VERY expensive though)
Asaint4ever Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 bristil city fans all saying he coming this way! 4.2m been agreed
JoeShmoe Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 I've heard from a BC source that it was between us and Leics and looks like he's chosen us
Saint Garrett Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Itkagent1962 ... Hearing Southampton will sign Nicky Maynard ahead of #lcfc #sfc
lotois-saint Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 I thought that Armitage Shanks made "Quality Plumbing Fixtures and Fittings", that's what it says on the stencil of their sanitary ware I have anywayArmitage Shanks is I believe a solicitor in the midlands so could well have relative contacts in that area.
Saint Matty 76 Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Just saw somebody on the Bristol City forum say that they don't get what Maynard would get out of a move to us as we've just proved we're still a selling club.
Crazy Diamond Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 I have to say I was against spending big to buy anyone - but if it's coming out of the money we've just earned from Chamberlain's exit? Go for it. Let's just make our squad as strong as possible.
SNSUN Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 I've got the Best Air Guitar Anthems on the hifi, I've just switched the 'Puter on to find out about the Fox signing, and the most positive potential signing thread I've read all summer. Natch, I'm jumping around the room air guitaring. Get in there Saints, let's **** up the rest of the nPC and go ONE BETTER than effing Norwich...
S-Clarke Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 (edited) We were always going to leave this move until later in the window. Let's see how this pans out. Edited 11 August, 2011 by S-Clarke
London Saint Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Of course he is signing for us over LCFC Who the **** wants to live in Leicester??
SO16_Saint Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 simonpeach Simon Peach Would love it if he announced he was joining #SaintsFC. He won't, I know that, but still.RT @FreddyAdu11 Stay tuned.
pap Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 Just noticed that both Fox and Maynard are from Winsford, Cheshire. Not a big place.
Crazy Diamond Posted 11 August, 2011 Posted 11 August, 2011 simonpeach Simon Peach Would love it if he announced he was joining #SaintsFC. He won't, I know that, but still.RT @FreddyAdu11 Stay tuned. By sheer coincidence, Adu is rhyming slang for a description of his ability. "Freddy? He's a bit Adu"
